News reports of this country heading toward a fiscal cliff are disturbing to say the least ó especially as Democrats and Republicans are arguing about it like two drunks arguing over the bar bill on the Titanic after its encounter with the iceberg. And where is our fearless leader? He takes his family on vacation to Hawaii!

News reports of this country heading toward a fiscal cliff are disturbing to say the least ó especially as Democrats and Republicans are arguing about it like two drunks arguing over the bar bill on the Titanic after its encounter with the iceberg. And where is our fearless leader? He takes his family on vacation to Hawaii!

I know he has been working hard, spending money we donít have for things we donít need, so he is probably tired and needs a break. It doesnít matter he and his family live in luxury with a taxpayer-supported staff caring for their every need as they go to Hawaii at great expense to the American taxpayers.

No wonder the budget is a mess; our so-called leaders no longer have any concept of saving money. All they appear able to do is spend it and raise taxes when they run out.

Wake up, America; we need to get rid of all self-serving politicians.
